Homeward Bound by Simon & Garfunkel | Cover ft. Ben Cooley

[@coribellanoche]

As a 70 year I grew up listening to S&G with a religious fervor. I knew all the lyrics by heart and became my own best audience. I stumbled upon you guys today for the first time as I was surfing KZbin looking for a different subject. I went no further. I was captivated by your adherence to the original with your own kind of blended voices that recreated the original but was all you. Thanks for bringing a warmth and inner glow that I have not felt for a long time. Thank you

Music Transcends the Generation Gap Music Never Dies

[@LaurieR2255]

I feel the same way. I can't get enough of these two. I prefer them to the original. Saw them in Rochester, NY last year. They were amazing

[@911aDay]

amazing!

[@skentmar105]

Me too. I viewed this 1 year after you, so we must be about the same age, I was born in July 1952. I've always loved Paul and Art when they were together, and to me their whole of their two talents was greater than the sum of them. Their only album that I didn't care for was a 1969 live album. It's a shame they couldn't overcome their differences. Paul is a bard, Art has (had) the voice of an angel.. still good, but lower.

[@deborahchapman222]

These two toured the USA in a Simon and Garfunkel review. They beat out hundreds of guys for the roles. They are fantastic. I too was S & G devotee. I relate.

[@PapaPedro99]

Three years later... still blown away! 😮❤😊

[@grizmt7779]

Thank you, I’m 73 still play and enjoy music, but to hear your clear fine young voices in this song of my youth if fantastic. Please don’t wast your gift. Many of us have.

[@rockrecordreport7136]

The intro with false start here is full of charm as well as the lovely performance. Glad you left that in.

[@briden91]

The world needs more of this. Thank you both.

[@Daimler-Jensen]

absolutely!!

[@belascialoja4812]

Singing with the purity of S&G, 1960s, isn't something that many could hope to do, but y'all did it and in a lovely, chill-bumpy way. So nice.

[@dominiqueeden]

you can't tell through the screen but i'm smiling from ear to ear.

[@belascialoja4812]

Oh, we can tell, Dom. Your screen conceals nothing. ;-)

[@sadsandwich8553]

👀😱

[@imspartacvs]

Great acoustics Great vocals Great cover Thanks for sharing

[@georgeruzza]

This cover is waiting silently for me

[@fayedee8653]

I see what you did there!

[@dantheman1986]

HUGE APPLAUSE. Any Simon & Garfunkel fan would give this a 10 out of 10. They have a way of honoring the original the way you hope they well... yet also give it their own flavor. Fantastic!

[@foofoorabbitt1196]

Thank you algorithm, even 2yrs later. Beautiful!

[@jimjohngirard]

Fantastic....my generations music played by such talented and skilled musicians. Even Art Garfunkel hair do....just kiddin'

[@billstandifer4318]

Thank you for this beautiful rendition of one of my favorite sings from my youth. You both sound great and the harmonies were glorious.

[@KarlBast]

You guys are so freaking good! Covering S&G is no small task, and you guys do it so genuinely and soulfully, it’s just incredible.

[@ronaldszudy8184]

Wish we could all hear more from Taylor and Ben! Best wishes.

[@derrickboatman1560]

When both of you know what "on" is. Great intro. Beautiful song beautiful rendition

[@lauraevans3709]

We saw you at the Paramount in Anderson, IN. SO very kind of you to take the time to meet us. We have not seen Talent like yours in years! Be blessed!

[@ronaldszudy8184]

You are troubadours for our times--a poet and a one man band. With this beautiful song you took me back to college years--memories both bitter and sweet. Your tour with this music couldn't possible have come at a better time for our country. Look forward to seeing you in Cleveland. Best wishes.

❤ As a World traveler, my homeward bound is coastal Mississippi. Very nice simple performance. Wishing y'all well in musical endeavors 👋🤠🐻🌎

[@stephendonahue3329]

It felt good to me too, Ben! Thank you gentlemen. You bring me back to my school days and the nun there who brought Simon & Garfunckel records to class and made us sing along.

[@pickenit]

Wow, I want to say that God has blessed you both with incredible talent that appears effortless, however, I am certain that you have worked very hard to perfect your craft. Thank you for putting this up.

[@pex_the_unalivedrunk6785]

these guys have such great chemistry! I'd love to see them do some more S&G stuff...like: Patterns, a poem written on the underground wall, and Flowers Never Bend with the Rainfall. these guys can nail anything, and bring tears to anyone's eyes.

[@kathleenkirchoff9223]

As teen in the 70s I had S&Gs Greatest Hit album and the book of the music with the guitar chords. I could never master the music but you have done it incredibly. Got to mention y'all also have their hair with the blond curls and dark waves.

[@darfoz8807]

Woooooow dude this is absolutely incredible

[@Michael65429]

Well done guys!👍👍

[@granteasdon5271]

You both sing so beautifully! The chorus fits your voice so well, Taylor 🔥

Wow this is really good. Love the false start. Glad you didn’t edit it out. I keep coming back and listening to this over and over.

[@sdanjohn]

Still coming back to listen to this.

[@markforeman7082]

Every once in a while creativity shapes on its own. This performance resonates deeply.

[@laurajhball]

Okay. This is a sound not easily replicated or done well. You nailed it, while also staying true to your own sounds. Bravo!!

[@richardfromcornwall5492]

I too am a silver haired relative newbie to the guitar only having started playing 4 years ago but once knew by heart most of Simon and Garfunkel lyrics by heart. I’ve just stumbled across your channel and am really impressed with your harmonies, putting your own small twists on them in places. Hope you’re still singing together. All the best

[@ellenfromoregon8192]
